Which project management tool should I use?
What project management tool should I use as an author? This is a question I get asked just about weekly!
Honestly. . . it's the one you will use. 📝
If you love digital:
- Trello → simple, visual boards (great for seeing your book from draft to publish).
- Asana → more structure, recurring tasks (helpful if you juggle multiple books).
- Notion → customizable and powerful (if you like to build your own systems).
If you’re more pen + paper:
- A simple planner or notebook with a weekly “to-do” spread works just as well!
👉 Start small: write down every task in one place. Give those tasks due dates. Reverse engineer from your due date or current writing project.
Then choose ONE tool to track your next book project. Don’t overcomplicate it! Clarity beats complexity every time. You would be surprised at how simple some systems are for big-time authors. But the key is they stay consistent!
What tool are you using right now (or curious to try)?
